Run with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain. And I don't mean watch the running, I mean actually out run a bull, the whole way. Extra points for being gored!
Make a stupid face at one of those Royal Guards at Buckingham Palace.
Party at Mardi Gras in New Orleans, once they're back up and running. I have to see at least 13 boobies.
Get a Philly Cheesesteak in Philadelphia.
Attend a World Cup game in a European or South American country. Engage in any tomfoolery that occurs.
Drink a Guinness in Ireland. Not Dublin though, a small pub with a real fireplace in a small town.
Attend a New Zealand All-Blacks rugby match. Also, I will accomplish Dwight's goal:
I can travel anywhere. Except Cuba. And I will travel to New Zealand. And walk the Lord of the Rings trail to Mordor. And then I will hike Mount Doom.Participate in the tomato fight in Spain - requires 10 headshots for completion.
Drink a glass of wine at a vinyard in Italy...in one sip.
Go snowboarding in Banff and Whistler.
Go surfing in California.
Enjoy a Fosters, barbecued shrimp and then go scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef off the coast of Australia.
Buy the best rip-off electronics I can find in Japan, after a meal of sushi and sapporo.
See a play on Broadway in New York.
Go to a high school football game in Texas.
See an NCAA football game and basketball game.
Leave a casino in Vegas as a winner.
As I mentioned on Scott's blog, drink tequila in some roadside stop on the way to Mexico city. The kind of place where you can pay your tab with a nice watch, and lose in pool against some three-toothed, 64 year old Mexican prostitute named Chantico.
Take a photograph of the Taj Mahal.
Go on a safari in Africa.
Smoke sheesha in Egypt after a day of graverobbing the pyramids.
Visit Easter Island off the coast of Chile.
Write a "Hello World" program at a startup in Silicon Valley.
Buy a hotdog and $8 beer and see a Red Sox/Yankee game at Fenway park.
Walk along the Great Wall of China.
Have a cup of fresh coffee in Columbia. Also, cocaine.
Eat a lobster dinner in Maine.
Deposit money into a swiss bank account.
Do a cycling tour of Italy or France.
Enjoy an Ouzo somewhere in the Greek islands.
I'm sure I will add to this list as the ideas enter my head. Anywhere else I should go?

Cocaine's addictive... Rosy
I have personally completed the following from your list:
> Make a stupid face at one of those Royal Guards at Buckingham Palace.
(did this, as a young child)
> Leave a casino in Vegas as a winner.
(ok, so it was only $60)
> Take a photograph of the Taj Mahal.
(does taking a photograph of a photograph of the Taj Mahal count?)
> Buy a hotdog and $8 beer and see a Red Sox/Yankee game at Fenway park.
(been there too...beautiful park...smells like sweat and pee though)
> Do a cycling tour of Italy or France.
A cycling tour? Yes. In Europe? Unfortunately, no.
Young man, your list is inspiring. I too shall make a list. Peace out.
I also completed a few:
-Ouzo on the Greek Islands
-Drank wine in an Italian vineyard. Can't say it was in one sip, but Mike did it and I was a foot away from him so that's pretty good
-I saw a world cup game while in France...but it was on the television
-I got a picture and had a conversation with some guards at Buckingham Palace, but they weren't wearing those red coats and big black hats like in Mr. Bean
Places you should go:
Hallstatt, Austria
Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland
Look at some pictures
